DanvillRob Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Truly one of the great true superstars. RIP C.B. I hope it's not so.... I played with him in SF back in the 60's, and did business with him back in the 90's. One of the founding pillars of Rock 'n Roll! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnate McDuanus Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Uhm...I've been searching everywhere and I can't find anything about him being dead. Not on his official website, nor on the news, nor on Wikipedia. Well...here's to hoping he's not dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 He's still alive. No news is good news, right. If Chuck Berry died, it would be all over the news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I'm not going to say anything just yet... There's nothing on the internet to validate this at all, I only saw an article where Chuck collapsed on stage from tiredness but then came back on after 20 minutes and said that he was too tired to complete the whole show. :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigKahune Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 ... saw an article where Chuck collapsed on stage from tiredness but then came back on after 20 minutes and said that he was too tired to complete the whole show. I saw similar report, which said the EMT/ambulance people checked during that 20 minutes off stage and they let him go. I have also not seen/heard any reports of his death.

WahKeen Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I wish people would check their sources before making a claim like that. I learned the hard way trusting someone else's word. a lady told me that someone had died, and I called the family to offer my condolences. the family member told me that she was not dead. I don't even remember how I back paddled that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrNylon Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I would have to believe Chuck Berry is ok. Agree with others if the worst happened it would be large coverage. They say he is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Didn't we have this sort of thread some months back when someone (it escapes my memory right now) claimed BB King was dead? Oh well, we'll all just have to hope for the best :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
